Default Over-rated England

Has anyone else noticed that England seem to dominate European and International competitions? Im currently in my 14th season and in that time an English team has won the Eurpoean Cup 11 times! A similar scenario has occured in the Euro Cup with 6 winners being English.

England's International team have also won the World Cup twice and The Euro Championship once.

Anybody else experienced a similar dominance from the English contingent?

Yes I thought that was because I was only running the English leagues but apparently England are rated way too high....

And the b@stards win the FA cup every single year so unrealistic

The year is 2022, English Clubs have won the Champions' Cup on 8 occasions (Scottish Club once :eek: ).

English Clubs have won the Uefa Cup on 5 occasions, and the International Team have won the World Cup twice, and the European Championships once.

Realistic, eh?

I only have the English league running so maybe that has been an influence.

It is a bit frustrating though considering the only cup we have won IRL since 66 was the warm up comp before France 98 started!!

Never thought Id hear myself moan about England being successful!!

i was just going to say 'get over it english teams will be great and dominate europe'

but then again, with the new rules regarding foreigners coming in, and probably getting more stringent as time goes by - english teams will have to use english players as a strong foundation of success, which they havnt done really that well in the past.

the signs are promising though, but its not all definate as i was about to state before i engaged my brain.

In my game, English clubs have won the European Cup 5 times and been runners-up on 3 occasions.
They've won the EURO Cup twice and been runners-up twice.

Nothing in the International championships, though.

This is with an awful lot of leagues running, so the player pool is large for all the major countries (Argentina excepted, which might explain their lack of success).

Given the success of English clubs this year and last in Europe is this really so unrealistic? Also, is it really that unrealistic that England win the world cup? I for one won't the that suprised if we do!
